Adelita Grijalva Endorsement

<h5>February 13th, 2026</h5><h3>End Citizens United Endorses Mayor Paige Cognetti for Pennsylvania’s 8th Congressional District</h3>Cognetti is rejecting corporate PAC money, committed to ending dark money, and supports banning congressional stock trading&nbsp;End Citizens United (ECU), a leading national anti-corruption organization, today announced its endorsement of Mayor Paige Cognetti in her campaign for Pennsylvania’s 8th Congressional District. Cognetti is part of Unrig Washington, a program ECU started last year for candidates who reject corporate PAC money, support a ban on congressional stock trading, and work to end dark money in politics.&nbsp;“Mayor Paige Cognetti cannot be bought. She has a strong record of rooting out corruption, demanding accountability, and, above all, putting working families first. Her refusal to take corporate PAC money and her support for a ban on congressional stock trading make clear she will never use public office for personal or political gain,” said End Citizens United President Tiffany Muller. “Under Congressman Bresnahan’s tenure, NEPA families have suffered tremendously from his corruption. From voting to kick working people off of their health insurance to using his position of power to profit off of his votes, he’s quickly become one of the most corrupt members of Congress. We’re proud to stand with Mayor Cognetti and we look forward to helping her win.”&nbsp;“I’m proud to have the support of End Citizens United because it’s time we root out the culture of corruption in Washington that is hurting Northeastern Pennsylvanians,” said Mayor Paige Cognetti. “I first ran for mayor of Scranton to clean up city hall and make our government work as hard as the people it serves. Now I’m running for Congress to take on DC corruption head-on. The people of Northeastern Pennsylvania are tired of politicians like Rob Bresnahan playing the stock market and using their public office for their own benefit. I’m grateful for ECU’s support and will partner with anyone to fix a broken Washington and put NEPA first.”&nbsp;As Mayor of Scranton, Cognetti has worked to curb the influence of special interests in local politics and ensure affordable living standards. Her administration has prioritized lowering everyday costs, investing in more homes and small businesses, and emerging from a 30-year distressed financial status period. By joining ECU’s Unrig Washington campaign, Mayor Cognetti expanded her commitment to reform. Unrig Washington has brought together over 120 congressional candidates (and counting) who refuse corporate PAC money, support a ban on congressional stock trading, and crack down on dark money in politics.

The group has more than four million members nationwide and is one of the nation’s leading anti-corruption organizations.

<h5>November 6th, 2025</h5><h3>End Citizens United Honors Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi for Historic Leadership and Lifetime of Public Service</h3>End Citizens United today lauded Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi on her extraordinary career in public service. Her historic leadership of the Democratic Party and tenure in Congress has defined modern politics, leaves an unparalleled legacy, and sets a precedent for years to come.&nbsp;“Trailblazing doesn’t do justice to the powerhouse that is Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi, whose nearly 40 years in Washington set the gold standard for real leadership,” said Tiffany Muller, president of End Citizens United. “As Speaker, Pelosi fought tirelessly to limit the influence of big money in politics. She was vital to passing the McCain-Feingold Act to curb large, unregulated political contributions, and was the foremost champion of the For the People Act (H.R. 1) to expand voting rights, fight corruption, and reduce the influence of wealthy donors in politics. She will also always be remembered for patriotically defending democracy during one of its darkest days on January 6th.&nbsp;“America is indebted to Speaker Pelosi and the standard she has set in Washington. She broke barriers, made history, and led with unmatched conviction. She delivered for working families, defended our democracy, and inspired a new generation of women to lead. Her leadership will echo for generations, a testament to what’s possible when principle, perseverance, and purpose guide those in power.”&nbsp;Muller continues: “Her iconic leadership during the Trump era has been crucial to protecting our democratic institutions and defending the rights of working people. Speaker Pelosi has been on the front lines of every effort to protect everyday Americans from the mounting threats they face to their healthcare and livelihoods: from a prolonged government shutdown to rampant billionaire-driven corruption to standing up to an unprecedented Republican power grab with the passage of Prop 50 in her home state.”&nbsp;ECU shared its <a href="https://x.com/StopBigMoney/status/1986456337069298002" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">video</a> that previously honored Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi for her career of service. ### ECU is dedicated to combating the two biggest challenges facing our democracy: the corrosive impact of Big Money and attempts to block access to the ballot box.

<h5>JULY 29th, 2025</h5><h3>End Citizens United // Let America Vote Statement on Reintroduction of the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act</h3> End Citizens United // Let America Vote (ECU // LAV) Action Fund President Tiffany Muller released the following statement on the Senate reintroduction of the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act:&nbsp;&nbsp;“Across the country, the right to vote is under a coordinated attack at the highest levels of government. President Trump, congressional Republicans, and Republican-controlled state houses are waging a political war to prevent Americans from accessing the ballot box. They’ve eliminated federal agencies designed to protect our elections from foreign interference, they’re threatening election workers, and they’re spewing lies about voter fraud. It’s a calculated effort to silence the American people––particularly voters of color––from holding them accountable for their reckless policies and corruption.&nbsp;“The best way to defend against these attacks is the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act. It will restore key protections that the extremist wing of the Supreme Court gutted and ensure that no politician can racially discriminate in our elections without consequences. This bill honors the legacy of the late Congressman Lewis not just in name, but in action.&nbsp;“We thank Senator Warnock and Senator Durbin for their ongoing and tireless efforts to get this bill passed into law, and we look forward to supporting them every step of the way.”&nbsp;The John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act will:<ul><li>Establish new review and approval criteria for preventing racial discrimination in voting. </li><li>Require federal review of specific voting practices known to have been used to discriminate against voters of color. </li><li>Mandate greater nationwide transparency of voting law and policy changes. </li><li>Reinforce voters’ ability to challenge racial discrimination in court. </li><li>Allow voters of color to challenge voting changes that worsen their position. </li><li>Give the U.S. Department of Justice more authority to investigate voting rights violations. </li><li>Expand courts’ roles in protecting voting rights. </li><li>Expand the federal observer program.</li></ul>

Ethics Complaint: Nevada Commission on Ethics

<h5>August 21st, 2025</h5><h3 style="text-align: center">End Citizens United Files Complaint with Office of Congressional Conduct Against Representative Rob Bresnahan Over Secret Helicopter</h3>Bresnahan failed to disclose ownership of helicopter valued up to $1.5 millionEnd Citizens United (ECU), one of the nation’s leading anti-corruption organizations, filed an ethics complaint with the Office of Congressional Conduct (OCC) against Representative Rob Bresnahan (PA-08). The complaint centers on Bresnahan’s failure to disclose ownership of a helicopter.“Representative Bresnahan is showing clear patterns of shady and corrupt behavior. From hiding a million-dollar helicopter to becoming one of the most prolific stock traders in Congress, his conduct raises serious questions about his honesty and ethics,”&nbsp;said End Citizens United President Tiffany Muller. “Failure to disclose an asset of this magnitude is a major breach of trust with voters and a serious violation of federal law. We urge the Office of Congressional Conduct to launch an investigation and hold Representative Bresnahan accountable.”&nbsp;The Complaint:&nbsp;<ul><li>In late 2024, RPB Ventures LLC purchased a 2024 Robinson R66 helicopter now based in Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania. </li><li>The helicopter’s value is estimated between $1-1.5 million. </li><li>According to Rep. Bresnahan’s 2024 annual financial disclosure report, filed on August 13, 2025, Rep. Bresnahan serves as the Managing Member of RPB Ventures LLC and ownership of the helicopter is not disclosed under the RPB Ventures LLC investment vehicle. The financial disclosure covers all transactions and owned property from the full 2024 calendar year, covering the date of the helicopter purchase. Hannah Pope, a spokesperson for Rep. Bresnahan, confirmed the Congressman’s ownership of the helicopter. </li><li>Any campaign travel by Rep. Bresnahan using the helicopter would require the filing of an in-kind contribution from RPB Ventures LLC. Despite efforts by Rep. Bresnahan to obscure the whereabouts of the helicopter by blocking public access to the helicopter’s travel history on several flight tracking websites, we know the helicopter has made over twenty flights, including to New Jersey, New York, and Rhode Island. The helicopter made regular flights around Bresnahan’s district during the lead-up to the November 2024 General Election, and has, on at least three instances since May 2025, flown out of Pennsylvania. If any of these trips were for campaign related purposes, Rep. Bresnahan’s failure to report the in-kind contributions would be a violation of campaign finance laws. </li><li>Federal law requires members of Congress to report “any interest in property held during the preceding calendar year in a trade or business, or for investment or the production of income, which has a fair market value which exceeds $1,000.” </li><li>Federal campaign law also requires the filing of in-kind contributions from LLC’s and that “[a] committee report[s] the value of an in-kind contribution received from a partnership or LLC in the same way it reports a monetary contribution.” This requirement applies to travel provided to a campaign at below market value. </li></ul><a href="/0609c42e-a486-4b24-908f-cf886d64cb1b">Click here to read the complaint.</a> ###For 10 Years, End Citizens United (ECU) has been dedicated to combating the two biggest challenges facing our democracy: the corrosive impact of Big Money in politics and attempts to block access to the ballot box.

A Winning Agenda for 2026

<h5>August 1st, 2025</h5><h3>New Battleground Poll: Republicans Hold Edge with Voters on Corruption Trust—But Reform Message Offers Democrats a Path Forward </h3>Polling shows Democrats can and must reclaim the mantle of reform or risk losing in 2026&nbsp; By focusing on fighting corruption and championing popular reforms like banning congressional stock trading, there is a clear path forward for closing the trust gap and winning back key voting blocs, the data shows WASHINGTON, DC — This week, progressive anti-corruption watchdog group<a href="https://www.endcitizensunited.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"> End Citizens United </a>released a sweeping battleground poll with a stark warning for Democrats ahead of 2026. Voters in key frontline congressional districts overwhelmingly see Washington as broken—and view Democrats as more corrupt than Republicans, even as President Trump’s blatant corruption scandals dominate headlines. Despite these serious headwinds for Democrats, however, the End Citizens United survey points to a clear path forward for the minority party to win back voter trust heading into the midterms.&nbsp;These findings were first detailed in an exclusive report by Rolling Stone: <a href="https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/trump-democrats-more-corrupt-than-republicans-poll-1235396092/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Voters See Dems as More Corrupt Than Republicans Despite Trump’s Grifting</a>&nbsp;According to the findings, Democrats are perceived as more corrupt than Republicans by a five-point margin—49% to 44%. Among Independent voters, the gap widens to eleven points. Voters also currently place more trust in Republicans on key issues like standing up to special interests, fighting government corruption, driving real change in Washington, and fixing a broken system. Perhaps most strikingly though, Donald Trump’s approval rating on corruption surpasses his overall approval by eight points—a notable and unexpected finding given a string of ongoing scandals and multiple self-enrichment schemes by the President and his family.&nbsp;Since the party trusted to tackle corruption has historically held the advantage at the ballot box, these numbers present a serious warning sign for Democrats hoping to flip the House in 2026 and prevent two more years of a Republican governing trifecta in Washington.<img src="https://run.imgix.net/476ee4a7-2f17-419d-a69f-d9ca0219a973/2f237a72-e432-4475-992b-9376472c6879/2f237a72-e432-4475-992b-9376472c6879.png?ixlib=js-3.8.0&amp;bri=0&amp;con=0&amp;sat=0&amp;high=0&amp;shad=0&amp;usm=0&amp;rect=0%2C0%2C1438%2C750&amp;w=1500" alt="" caption="" align="center" alignwidth="40" variant="framed">&nbsp;The polling does, however, provide a path forward for Democrats. Data shows that Democrats can close—and even reverse—the trust gap by running on a bold anti-corruption agenda and championing popular reforms like banning congressional stock trading and closing lobbyist loopholes. In fact, when Democrats take the offensive against Republican corruption and lead with a strong reform message, the generic congressional ballot shifts decisively in their favor.<img src="https://run.imgix.net/476ee4a7-2f17-419d-a69f-d9ca0219a973/ddd680bc-2a64-42ae-bfeb-3278a46b3c0c/ddd680bc-2a64-42ae-bfeb-3278a46b3c0c.png?ixlib=js-3.8.0&amp;bri=0&amp;con=0&amp;sat=0&amp;high=0&amp;shad=0&amp;usm=0&amp;rect=0%2C0%2C1600%2C828&amp;w=1500" alt="" caption="" align="center" alignwidth="40" variant="framed">“I won’t sugarcoat it. Right now, voters trust Republicans more to tackle corruption and fix what’s broken in Washington,” said Tiffany Muller, president of End Citizens United. “But the good news is we can still turn this around. By exposing how Republican corruption hurts everyday Americans and championing bold, popular policies like banning congressional stock trading and closing lobbyist loopholes, Democrats can win over independents and swing voters and defeat Republicans in direct head-to-head matchups. The path is clear: lead on reform and we win.”&nbsp;Additional topline findings from the End Citizens United survey reveal that:<ul><li>80% of voters say there are at least big problems in Washington that need fixing. </li><li>89% of voters believe taking on and reducing government corruption should be a somewhat or very big priority for Congress. </li><li>85% of voters have serious or very serious concerns with members of Congress trading stocks based on information not available to the public and making millions off their positions. </li><li>When asked about specific anti-corruption reforms, 49% of voters said cracking down on self-enrichment—including banning members of Congress from trading stocks and barring anyone connected to the president, vice president, Supreme Court justices, or members of Congress from accepting gifts from foreign governments—should be a top priority.</li></ul>The End Citizens United survey was conducted by <a href="https://impactresearch.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Impact Research</a>—a leading Democratic firm used by multiple presidential campaigns. The poll surveyed 1,000 likely 2026 general election voters in battleground House districts between June 26 and July 1, 2025, with a margin of error of ±3.1 percentage points at a 95% confidence level.

Behn recently joined ECU’s “Unrig Washington” initiative—a bold new standard for Democratic congressional candidates to demonstrate their commitment to cleaning up Washington and putting voters first.&nbsp;“We’re proud to stand with Aftyn Behn for Congress,” said End Citizens United President Tiffany Muller. “Everyday Tennesseans are paying the price for Washington’s corruption—and Aftyn is ready to fight back. She has always put people above special interests, refuses corporate PAC money, and is committed to cracking down on dark money in politics. We’re proud to endorse her as she continues standing up for working families and holding powerful interests accountable.”&nbsp;“Tennesseans are tired of watching billionaires and corporate PACs buy our democracy out from under us,” said Tennessee State Representative Aftyn Behn. “I’m grateful for the End Citizens United’s endorsement because I’ve spent my entire life challenging corporate power. Our government should work for our people, not the highest bidder.”&nbsp;By joining ECU’s “Unrig Washington” campaign earlier this year, State Rep. Behn became one of more than 100 Democratic Congressional candidates committed to restoring trust and accountability in government.

<h5>September 19th, 2025</h5><h4>ICYMI: Trump’s Corruption Gives Democrats A Shot At A Unifying Message [HuffPost]&nbsp;</h4>Kevin RobillardSeptember 18, 2025More than 80 Democratic members of Congress and candidates have signed on to a new pledge aiming to prove their anti-corruption bona fides, giving the party an opportunity to unite behind a message of combating President Donald Trump’s corruption. The pledge, organized by End Citizens United, represents a shift in how Democrats talk about good governance compared to their approach under former President Joe Biden. It places less emphasis on politically polarizing battles over voting rights and more focus on limiting the role of money in politics, in a way that the party hopes can persuade deeply cynical independent and swing voters. It also provides the opportunity for candidates from both the party’s progressive and moderate wings to adopt a unified message and bypass the ideological squabbling that has defined the party since its loss in the 2024 election cycle and to separate themselves from the party’s still-toxic brand. “Coming out of 2024, addressing corruption is a big priority for voters, but they don’t see any difference between the two parties,” said Tiffany Muller, the president of End Citizens United. “In previous midterm waves, whether it was 1994, 2006 or 2018, whichever party has managed to grab the mantle of anti-corruption has been able to triumph.” The members and candidates are agreeing to support a ban on members of Congress from trading individual stocks; pledging to reject campaign donations from corporate PACs; and cracking down on so-called “dark money” by supporting legislation to reveal donors hidden by the existing campaign finance system and reforming the Federal Elections Commission. The Democrats who have signed on span the party’s ideological spectrum, including both progressive Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts and Blue Dog Coalition member Rep. Jared Golden of Maine. They include the party’s most vulnerable Senate incumbent in Sen. Jon Ossoff (Ga.), one of its top Senate recruits in Rep. Chris Pappas (N.H.) and every member of the crowded Democratic primary fields in Iowa and Texas. Ossoff, in particular, has emphasized combating corruption as he runs for reelection in a swing state against a divided GOP field. “Our fight is against deeply entrenched corruption and greed,” he said during a speech in July. “Corruption and greed that have so deeply rotted our system that it gave rise to this depraved man who has now plagued our public life for a decade.” (The depraved man, of course, is <a href="https://www.huffpost.com/news/topic/donald-trump" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Donald Trump</a>.) One independent Senate candidate, Nebraska union leader Dan Osborn, has also signed the pledge. Muller said the group will continue to roll out tranches of candidates who signed on to the pledge, and hopes to have more than 150 signatures by the end of the cycle. She acknowledged many Democrats won’t be able to abide by all three planks of the pledge, but said congressional leadership was broadly on board with the proposed agenda. “Leadership knows that cleaning up corruption is going to need to be one of the main planks of our midterm strategy,” she said. “It’s our job to push them to go further.” Recent public surveys on who the public trusts more to combat corruption have shown the public split, <a href="https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/trump-democrats-more-corrupt-than-republicans-poll-1235396092/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">with the GOP gaining a slight edge</a>. That’s a reversal from most of Trump’s first term, when Democrats’ focus on the topic powered them to control of both chambers of Congress and the presidency. But Muller now acknowledges the Biden White House and other Democrats <a href="https://www.huffpost.com/entry/democrats-for-the-people-act-democracy-joe-manchin_n_609dcc28e4b03e1dd387a02e" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">erred by shifting their focus to voting rights </a>following the 2020 election and the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection as they unsuccessfully tried to sell Congress on a massive democracy reform package. Those issues tend to divide Americans by party, whereas talking about corruption and limiting the power of money in politics is generally a winner across party lines. “We quit talking about it. It was a mistake,” she said. “What got us to H.R. 1 in the first place was a focus on the money in politics, the broken system that people desperately want us to fix.” Trump’s behavior in office is giving Democrats plenty of corruption to run against. Most recently, a New York Times <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2025/09/15/us/politics/trump-uae-chips-witkoff-world-liberty.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">report</a> this week outlined how the United Arab Emirates’ ruling family deposited $2 billion into a cryptocurrency company owned by the Trump family as the Trump administration decided to allow the sale of valuable AI computer chips to the Gulf nation.Trump has also used government resources to promote his golf courses, attended a dinner with owners of his cryptocurrency and accepted a gift of a $400 million plane to serve as Air Force One from the Qatari government. The plane would be turned over to Trump’s presidential library foundation after he leaves office.

Trump Mobile Statement

<h5>SEptemeber 2nd, 2025</h5><h3>End Citizens United Blasts Trump’s Politically Motivated Attack on Colorado’s Voting Process</h3>End Citizens United (ECU) President Tiffany Muller issued the following statement on President Trump’s decision to illegally punish Colorado’s use of mail in voting by moving Space Command to Alabama:“Weaponizing the power of the federal government to retaliate against Colorado for how it administers elections––which is every state’s constitutional right––is a disgraceful and dangerous abuse of power. This is a page straight out of the authoritarian playbook. It’s further proof that Trump will do anything, including manipulating national security decisions, to serve his own political vendettas.&nbsp;“Colorado has become the gold standard for fair and safe elections, making it easier for people to vote while maintaining the highest levels of integrity. The state’s record turnout is proof that when you strengthen access to the ballot box, democracy thrives. These facts are exactly why Trump fears Colorado’s example and is retaliating against it.” ###For 10 Years, End Citizens United (ECU) has been dedicated to combating the two biggest challenges facing our democracy: the corrosive impact of Big Money in politics and attempts to block access to the ballot box.

<h5>July 16th 2025</h5><h3>End Citizens United Files DOJ and OGE Complaint Calling for Federal Probe into Sec. Kristi Noem’s Undisclosed $80,000 Dark Money Payment &nbsp;</h3> WASHINGTON, DC —&nbsp;Tiffany Muller, president of anti-corruption group End Citizens United (ECU), this week submitted a formal request to the U.S. Office of Government Ethics and the Department of Justice’s Public Integrity Section, calling for a federal investigation into whether Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem violated financial disclosure laws by failing to report an <a href="https://www.propublica.org/article/kristi-noem-political-donations-income-dark-money-dhs-ethics" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">$80,000 personal payment</a> from a dark money group during her tenure as South Dakota governor. The complaint—first <a href="https://www.thedakotascout.com/p/80k-political-payout-to-kristi-noem" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">reported</a> by the Sioux Falls-based independent newspaper The Dakota Scout—can be read in full <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1eM5sykx36M7xQ7ryeBI365ybMcsrkaZrvE2N0FkHQ80/edit?tab=t.0" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">here</a>.&nbsp;&nbsp;According to the complaint, Ashwood Strategies, LLC was incorporated in Delaware in June 2023, with then-Governor Noem listed as the Managing Member. Later that year, Noem received $80,000 in payments from the American Resolve Policy Fund—a nonprofit led by her former campaign treasurer—funneled through Ashwood Strategies. After her nomination by President Trump to serve as Secretary of Homeland Security, Noem failed to disclose the $80,000 payment on her Executive Branch Personnel Public Financial Disclosure Report filed with the Office of Government Ethics.&nbsp;“This reeks of a shell game,”&nbsp;said ECU President Tiffany Muller. “Noem—already no stranger to ethics scandals—secretly took an $80,000 payment from a shadowy dark money group and flagrantly broke federal law by hiding it from both the public and government watchdogs. What’s worse: we still have no idea who’s behind this money or what conflicts of interest it has created. It’s deeply unsettling that someone with a record of using public office for personal gain now controls the nation’s most heavily funded federal law enforcement agency.”&nbsp;The complaint states, in part: “Federal law requires members of the Executive Branch to report ‘all income from whatever source derived.’ The facts in this matter are clear, Secretary Noem failed to disclose an $80,000 payment from American Resolve Policy Fund, a nonprofit managed by Secretary Noem’s former campaign treasurer Staci Goede.”&nbsp;The complaint goes on to urge the Office of Government Ethics and the Department of Justice to investigate the circumstances surrounding Secretary Noem’s Public Financial Disclosure Form, as well as the activities of Ashwood Strategies, LLC and the American Resolve Policy Fund.&nbsp;Since its founding a decade ago, ECU has led the fight against dark money and corruption in Washington, filing dozens of complaints exposing violations of campaign finance and ethics laws. Earlier this year, ECU called for a <a href="https://www.endcitizensunited.org/bribery-for-pardon-scheme-complaint" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">federal probe</a> into whether President Trump’s pardon of former nursing home executive Paul Walczak was an illegal bribery-for-pardon scheme. &nbsp;ECU President Tiffany Muller is available for interview to discuss the complaint against Secretary Noem and the broader issues of corruption and self-dealing that have characterized the Trump administration’s second term.

<h5>August 11th, 2025</h5><h3>End Citizens United Endorses Jay Jones for Virginia Attorney General</h3>End Citizens United (ECU), one of the nation’s leading anti-corruption organizations, today endorsed Jay Jones for Virginia Attorney General. As a lifelong resident of Virginia, Jones has been deeply committed to public service and spent his career fighting for Virginia families.“Jay Jones will bring new leadership to the Attorney General’s office, one focused on protecting civil rights and holding corporate rulebreakers accountable when they raise prices on Virginians in the pursuit of higher profits,” said End Citizens United President Tiffany Muller. “As Republicans in DC and across the country continue their coordinated attack on our democracy and the right to vote, we need pro-democracy, anti-corruption champions like Jones who will stand up for families and fight back. End Citizens United is proud to endorse him, and we look forward to helping him win.”“I’m running for Attorney General because I believe in transparency and accountability for all – and that’s also why I’m proud to be endorsed by End Citizens United,” said Jay Jones. “As Attorney General, I’ll restore the office to what it should be – a watchdog for Virginians, not a weapon for political games. Together, we will lead the fight for a fairer, safer, and more just Virginia that truly represents the will of the people.”During his time as Assistant Attorney General, Jay Jones sued corporate special interests to prevent price gouging at the grocery store and took on big banks when they harmed families in the state. As Attorney General, Jones will ensure Virginia will no longer be left unprotected when the Trump administration attacks Virginia communities, jobs, and voting rights. He will make protecting civil rights a priority by creating a Voter Protection Unit to ensure fair and free access to the ballot box.

<h5>September 25th, 2025</h5><h4>End Citizens United Statement on FEC Commissioner Trey Trainor’s Resignation</h4>End Citizens United Senior Fellow Ellen Weintraub, who served as Commissioner and four-time Chair of the U.S. Federal Election Commission (FEC) from 2002 to 2025, issued the following statement on <a href="https://www.notus.org/campaigns/federal-election-commission-quorum-shutdown-trey-trainor-texas" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">news that Commissioner Trey Trainor is resigning</a>:“The FEC is one of the few federal agencies that actually has jurisdiction to address lawbreaking by politicians and officeholders, including the President of the United States. But it cannot do its job without a sufficient number of commissioners to make decisions. With just two members and no nominations to fill the vacant seats, President Trump is intentionally sidelining the nation’s campaign finance watchdog. Restoring the quorum is the bare minimum to have any safeguards against corruption.”&nbsp;Trainor’s resignation leaves the Commission with only two commissioners. The law establishes the agency as a six-member body, but a minimum of four commissioners is needed to restore quorum and allow the agency to resume its official functions––like investigating alleged violations of law, making rules, conducting audits, offering official guidance to political committees, and imposing fines. The FEC has been left without a quorum since May, rendering it unable to act while billions of dollars flow into the 2026 election cycle.&nbsp;Since her <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2025/02/07/donald-trump-fec-commissioner-firing-014200" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">illegal firing</a> in February, Weintraub has been sounding the alarm on President Trump’s attacks on the agency.

End Citizens United Endorses Deb Haaland for New Mexico Governor

<h5>November 19th, 2025</h5><h3 style="text-align: center">End Citizens United Files Ethics Complaint Against Nevada Governor Joe Lombardo</h3>End Citizens United (ECU), one the nation’s leading anti-corruption organizations, today filed an ethics complaint with the Nevada Commission on Ethics against Governor Joe Lombardo.&nbsp; The complaint outlines multiple instances in which Governor Lombardo used official state social media accounts to repost, tag, and amplify campaign-related content for his political benefit. Nevada law expressly prohibits elected officials from using public resources for political purposes or leveraging the powers of their office to gain electoral advantage. Governor Lombardo has previously been sanctioned by the Nevada Commission on Ethics for using official resources to advance campaign-related activity during the 2022 gubernatorial campaign.

ECU Endorses Rep. Whiteside For Reelection

<h5>May 29th, 2025</h5><h3>Rep. Crow, Sen. Tester call for reforms during ‘dark money’ discussion in Aurora</h3>Cassandra Ballard 05/29/25(<a href="https://sentinelcolorado.com/metro/rep-crow-sen-tester-call-for-reforms-during-dark-money-discussion-in-aurora/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Sentinel Colorado</a>) So-called “dark money” political contributions are a growing force in local and national elections, crossing all kinds of political lines, Aurora Democratic Rep. Jason Crow and guests said at a roundtable discussion in Aurora Wednesday.In 2024, $20 billion was spent during the election cycle, and 75% of the cash was untraceable “dark money” , said&nbsp;Tiffany Muller, president of End Citizens United.“Of course, corruption is happening,”&nbsp;Muller&nbsp;said. “Of course, we’re just seeing our government sold off to the highest bidder.”She said there are now three lobbyists for every member of Congress.These and other campaign contribution issues were the topics discussed at the event at the Community College of Aurora among&nbsp;Muller, Crow, Aly Belknap, executive director of Colorado Common Cause and Montana Democratic U.S. Senator Jon Tester.&nbsp;Crow held the panel with&nbsp;End Citizens United&nbsp;to discuss his work in Congress to combat campaign finance corruption and enact meaningful campaign finance reform, including his recent introduction of the End Dark Money Act, which aims to curb the influence of dark money in U.S. elections.[…]There are other times in American history when citizens fought back against the political system,&nbsp;Muller&nbsp;said.“Let’s go back to the Gilded Age, where we saw an economic and income inequality that’s rivaled only by today,”&nbsp;Muller&nbsp;said. “We saw permanent power being held in just a few hands.”&nbsp;That movement led to the direct election of senators and the Tillman Act, which banned corporate contributions in federal elections for nearly a century, she said.&nbsp;In the aftermath of the Watergate scandal, the United States implemented extensive reforms, including the establishment of the Federal Election Commission, as well as contribution and disclosure limits,&nbsp;Muller&nbsp;said.&nbsp;“Let’s renew them,”&nbsp;Muller&nbsp;said. “I believe that what we have seen is that the people will keep fighting this fight.”Colorado’s strict disclosure laws and the ability to file campaign finance complaints have proven effective in deterring dark money groups like the Koch brothers, who contribute far less to Colorado elections “because they didn’t want to be exposed for all of the money they were spending,”&nbsp;Muller&nbsp;said.&nbsp;“We might not be able to just overturn Citizens United legislatively,”&nbsp;Muller&nbsp;said. “We can pass disclosure and transparency, and we know that that works. We know it because we’ve seen it in state after state.”&nbsp;The Federal Election Commission, established 50 years ago, is now largely dysfunctional due to partisan stalemates and a lack of a quorum,&nbsp;Muller&nbsp;said.“We could reform the Federal Elections Commission and make it work,”&nbsp;Muller&nbsp;said. “Have a watchdog on the beat again.”&nbsp;She also recommended passing online disclosures to identify who is funding political misinformation online, as well as ethics and transparency reforms for the Supreme Court, so that they can’t receive millions from individuals with cases before the court.

Unrig Washington

The 2026 midterm elections will be a referendum on a broken system. Voters across the political spectrum, especially Independents and swing voters, are hungry for change. They overwhelmingly see corruption, self-dealing, and special interest influence as the root cause of Washington’s failures.To meet this moment, we’re calling on elected officials and candidates to Unrig Washington. This End Citizens United program is a bold, public commitment to clean up Washington by supporting real anti-corruption reforms and leading by example. <ol><li>Ban Congressional Stock Trading: Support legislation to prohibit Members of Congress from trading individual stocks. Public office is a place to serve, not to profit.</li><li>Refuse Corporate PAC Money: Reject all contributions from corporate PACs to send a clear message: Elected officials' priorities are the people, not powerful corporations or special interests.</li><li>Crack Down on Dark Money: Fight to end the flood of undisclosed political spending by supporting legislation to expose secret donors, increase transparency, and fix the FEC to have a cop on the beat. It's time to end the dominance of billionaire-funded special interest groups.</li></ol>

End Citizens United Honors Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi

<h5>OCTOBER 20th, 2025</h5><h3>End Citizens United Endorses Chris Mann for Kansas Attorney General</h3>End Citizens United (ECU), one of the nation’s leading anti-corruption organizations, today endorsed Chris Mann for Kansas Attorney General. A former police officer and prosecutor, Mann has spent his career holding corrupt and powerful actors to account and fighting for fairness, justice, and safer communities across the state. “From his days on the beat as a police officer to his work in the courtroom taking on white-collar crime, Chris Mann has built a distinguished record of taking on corrupt and powerful interests and protecting everyday Kansans,” said End Citizens United President Tiffany Muller. “As Attorney General, he will continue that work and restore decency to the state’s top law enforcement office. The contrast in character between Chris and the current occupant of the office could not be clearer. We are proud to stand with him and help deliver the leadership Kansas deserves.”“I’m honored to have the endorsement of End Citizens United and share their commitment to creating a more transparent government —one that serves working families, not the wealthy and powerful,” said Kansas Attorney General candidate Chris Mann. “As Attorney General, I’ll fight to ensure our democracy works for every Kansan and will work tirelessly to expose wrongdoing, stand up for vulnerable communities, and turn promises of fairness into real action.” ### ECU is dedicated to combating the two biggest challenges facing our democracy: the corrosive impact of Big Money and attempts to block access to the ballot box.

<h5>November 10th, 2025</h5><h3>End Citizens United Blasts Latest GOP Attack on Mail-In Voting as Supreme Court Takes Up Case on Postmarked Ballots</h3>WASHINGTON, DC — End Citizens United (ECU) President Tiffany Muller released the following statement in response to <a href="https://apnews.com/article/supreme-court-mail-ballot-deadline-mississippi-198789b582ac14fdee18a12bbd73e166" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">news</a> that the Supreme Court will consider a Republican-led challenge aimed at blocking states from counting mail-in ballots postmarked by, but arriving shortly after, Election Day. “Once again, Republicans are weaponizing the courts to attack the right to vote by mail, a secure, popular, and widely used process that Trump has long sought to sabotage. Make no mistake: Refusing to count ballots postmarked by Election Day would silence voters whose mail is delayed through no fault of their own, most egregiously the brave service members casting votes from overseas to ensure they are represented in the country they risk their lives to defend.&nbsp;“Every American, whether a senior voting by mail or a soldier casting a ballot from a military base abroad, deserves to have their vote counted. Anything less is an unacceptable and politically motivated attack on democracy.” ### ECU is dedicated to combating the two biggest challenges facing our democracy: the corrosive impact of Big Money and attempts to block access to the ballot box.

<h5>January 23rd, 2026</h5><h3>ICYMI: End Citizens United, House Members Mark 16th Anniversary of Citizens United with Floor Speeches</h3>WASHINGTON, DC — This week, End Citizens United Action Fund (ECU) marked the 16th anniversary of the Citizens United decision by organizing an effort that included floor speeches from 10 House members. Led by Representatives Joe Neguse and Suhas Subramanyam, the members discussed how unlimited and undisclosed money in politics has supercharged corruption, harmed working families, and eroded public trust, while reaffirming the need for comprehensive campaign finance reform.&nbsp;Below are highlights of speeches from Democratic members of the House:&nbsp;Rep. Suhas Subramanyam:“When the wealthy few can drown out the many, we lose sight of who we are supposed to serve. Policymaking gets overshadowed by these special interests. After Citizens United, too often it is small groups of corporations and billionaires tipping the scales based on who serves their business interests. This can and must end.

<h5>August 6th, 2025</h5><h3>End Citizens United // Let America Vote Statement on the Anniversary of the Voting Rights Act</h3>End Citizens United // Let America Vote (ECU // LAV) President Tiffany Muller issued the following statement on the anniversary of the Voting Rights Act (VRA) of 1965:&nbsp;“Sixty years ago, the&nbsp;Voting Rights Act was signed into law to protect the freedom to vote and guard against racial discrimination in our elections. Today, that promise is under assault. Donald Trump, congressional Republicans, and Republican-controlled state legislatures are waging a coordinated campaign to silence Americans––particularly voters of color––by blocking access to the ballot box. From voter roll purges and discriminatory ID laws to the closure of polling locations in minority communities, there’s no doubt about what they’re doing and who they’re targeting.&nbsp;“The Supreme Court’s extremist right-wing majority gave the green light for this movement. By gutting key protections in&nbsp;Shelby Country v Holder and Brnovich v DNC, the Court enabled and legalized discriminatory practices that were outlawed by the Voting Rights Act.&nbsp;&nbsp;“This anniversary is both a reminder of what’s at stake and a call to action. We must keep up the fight and demand Congress pass the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act and the Freedom to Vote Act to stop corrupt, power-hungry politicians from attacking our most fundamental freedom and to ensure our elections reflect the will of people.”

ICYMI: Trump’s Corruption Gives Democrats A Shot At A Unifying Message [HuffPost]

<h5>January 15th, 2026</h5><h3>ICYMI: End Citizens United, Eight Senators Mark 16th Anniversary of Citizens United with Floor Speeches</h3>ICYMI: End Citizens United, Eight Senators Mark 16th Anniversary of Citizens United with Floor Speeches&nbsp;WASHINGTON, DC — Yesterday, End Citizens United Action Fund (ECU) began its effort to mark the 16th anniversary of the Citizens United decision by organizing an effort that included floor speeches from eight senators. Led by Senator Mark Kelly, they spoke about how unlimited and undisclosed money in politics has supercharged corruption, harmed working families, and eroded public trust, while reaffirming the need for comprehensive campaign finance reform.&nbsp;&nbsp;“Families are struggling with rising expenses for health care, for housing, for utilities, for groceries, just about everything,” said Senator Mark Kelly. “They want their government to help bring down costs and help make their lives more affordable. But time and again, the policies that would do exactly that stall, or they just die right here in this chamber and down the road at the White House. Sixteen years after Citizens United, this is not about re-litigating a court case. It’s about recognizing how deeply money in politics affects people’s lives and about drawing a clear line between a political system that serves billionaires and one that serves people.”&nbsp;“Every time we have brought it up, every Republican has voted to defend dark money,” said Senator Sheldon Whitehouse. “And every Democrat has voted to rid our politics of this corrupting scourge. It is a clear divide, a clear difference between us, and the public is with us. The public is infuriated that big, secretive special interests can control our politics from behind the scenes with massive dark money contributions.”&nbsp;“We have a money in politics system that is corrupting the vision of government by and for the people,” said Senator Jeff Merkley. “It’s replacing it with government by and for the powerful. Who in America wants a governmental system — designed and intended to be a reflection of ordinary citizens’ desires and aspirations and opinions — to simply be a country run by oligarchs and billionaires? Yet that is where we have arrived.”&nbsp;“It is impossible to even trace what money is coming in and from where,” said Senator Amy Klobuchar. “Unlimited anonymous federal spending in our elections doesn’t encourage free speech — it drowns out the voices of American people who are seeking to participate. I’ve long supported the constitutional amendment to overturn Citizens United and restore the authority of Congress and the states to establish reasonable limits on campaign spending.”&nbsp;“Citizens United has created a system where presidential pardons are pay-to-play, where environmental regulations that keep us safe and healthy are slashed, where corporate mergers are rubber-stamped by federal regulators,” said Senator Cory Booker. “Sixteen years now, we have seen the slow, cancerous corruption of American democracy. We’ve seen how folks who pay the price get outsized influence — that a small group of billionaires and corporations wield enormous power over elections and, in turn, over the policies that all Americans have to live under.”&nbsp;“It’s important for us to remember not to feel helpless,” said Senator Andy Kim. “Too often, we say that money in politics is a problem too big — we can’t solve it. Or the challenges are too entrenched, we’re not going to be able to mobilize to fix it. But I urge us on this anniversary of Citizens United that it doesn’t have to be this way. We don’t need to have a politics that is exasperating. We can have one that is empowering. We can have one where the voices of voters, not the endless bank accounts of the well-off and the well-connected, decide who represents us. And we can have a politics that restores and grows trust, rather than actively degrading it.”&nbsp;“Citizens United was mindless. To say that a business has the same rights as individuals under the Constitution is a mindless conclusion,” said Senator Dick Durbin. “This Citizens United decision and where we are in politics today has changed this business so much. I’m not sure we can ever reclaim the kind of idealism we all aspire to as public servants in this institution.” “There’s a group that’s being formed right now called Leading the Future, another one of these innocuous-sounding PACs — it’s promising to spend $100 million in the election this fall. It is being funded by a group of AI companies,” said Senator Chris Murphy. “You can understand why people feel powerless today, why people feel like the system is rigged. Because even if they give $25, it just doesn’t make a difference when a handful of companies can, with the snap of their fingers, muster $100 million to try to change the impact of an election on public policy.”&nbsp;###For 10 Years, End Citizens United (ECU) has been dedicated to combating the two biggest challenges facing our democracy: the corrosive impact of Big Money in politics and attempts to block access to the ballot box.

<h5>March 6th, 2026</h5><h3>End Citizens United Endorses Ethan Corson for Kansas Governor</h3>End Citizens United (ECU), a leading national anti-corruption organization, today endorsed Kansas State Senator Ethan Corson in the Kansas gubernatorial election.&nbsp;“Kansas needs a governor who will continue to stand up to corruption in Topeka and put the interests of working families ahead of wealthy donors and corporations,” said End Citizens United President Tiffany Muller. “State Senator Ethan Corson has shown he is ready to do exactly that. In the state legislature, he has pushed for greater transparency and accountability instead of letting special interests dictate the agenda. He has the independence and integrity to bring about the type of change Kansas families are demanding. We are proud to endorse State Senator Corson and we look forward to helping him win.”&nbsp;“I’m honored to earn the endorsement of End Citizens United,” said State Senator Ethan Corson. “Working families deserve a governor who is accountable to them. That’s why I’m committed to strengthening ethics rules, reducing conflicts of interest, and curbing dark money influence so our government works for Kansans, not corporations.”&nbsp;Corson supports reforms aimed at making government more accountable and responsive to the people it’s supposed to serve. This includes shining a light on money in politics, protecting voting rights, and limiting the influence of lobbyists. He believes tackling corruption in Topeka will make it possible to lower costs, cut taxes for working families, improve public education access and quality, and bring jobs to the state.###For 10 Years, End Citizens United (ECU) has been dedicated to combating the two biggest challenges facing our democracy: the corrosive impact of Big Money in politics and attempts to block access to the ballot box.

<h2 style="text-align: center;">SCORING CRITERIA</h2><h4>The scorecard is based on several criteria, including cosponsoring the proposed constitutional amendment to overturn Citizens United, voting to prevent the SAVE Act from advancing as a restrictive voting measure, and rejecting corporate PAC money. Other criteria focused on protecting American families from historic attempts to weaken consumer and environmental protections, as well as opposing the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, which amounted to one of the most egregious transfers of wealth from the working class in order to reward GOP megadonors for their support. These grades reflect each member’s commitment to backing tangible reforms and defending against attacks on democracy.</h4>

<h5>November 4th, 2025</h5><h3>End Citizens United Congratulates Governor-Elect Abigail Spanberger on Historic Win in Virginia</h3>End Citizens United (ECU) President Tiffany Muller released the following statement celebrating Abigail Spanberger’s victory in Virginia’s gubernatorial race and her becoming the Commonwealth's first woman governor: “Congratulations to Governor-elect Abigail Spanberger on her historic and well-earned victory. Spanberger has spent her career championing working families over special interests, challenging the corrosive influence of Big Money in politics, and earning a reputation as a principled fighter against corruption. “End Citizens United is proud to have endorsed and supported her campaign since last year. Throughout the election, she placed the voices of everyday Virginians above corporations that seek to control political outcomes. We look forward to seeing her bring this bold, people-first leadership to Richmond.” ECU first backed Spanberger in her successful 2018 bid for the U.S. House, where she joined a historic class of lawmakers elected on a platform of defending working families, expanding voting rights, and putting everyday Americans ahead of special interests. In Congress, she led the fight to ban Members of Congress and their families from trading individual stocks and twice cosponsored the For the People Act (H.R. 1), a landmark anti-corruption bill designed to root out Big Money in politics and strengthen democracy. ### ECU is dedicated to combating the two biggest challenges facing our democracy: the corrosive impact of Big Money and attempts to block access to the ballot box.
